The Environmental Center, Sodexo, and Student Union facilities are piloting a re-usable to-go program in the campus dining hall. You simply buy a to-go card and then exchange the card every time you go into the dining hall. When you are done with your container, you can return it for a card at any campus dining locations and then get a CLEAN to-go container the next time you go to lunch. If the container breaks, you can return it for a new one. Containers are $5 each and go to support the Environmental Center operations.

Buy them at the Environmental Center or outside of Animas Perks Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11- 1 p.m.

We’ve all heard it said, and probably said it ourselves; “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.” However the reality of this statement is about to come into play as the Zero Waste Team sponsors a contest to see who’s trash can become the most creative treasure. Get this; you can win really cool stuff by submitting a photo of you and something you made out of re-useable goods. Awesome right? Here’s how.

To begin, check out the “Get Crafty” booth that’s going to be outside of Reed Library (unless its bitter cold or wet in which case it’ll be inside the CUB) on February 16. Get some information and some inspiration for when you take your picture with your creative creation on February 25. The winners will be judged and picked by real students in the CUB on February 28.

Check it out its gonna rock!!! In the mean time, check out the Free Store on Thursdays for fun inspiration or just cool stuff.
